This is Gold, though I'm not sure if this is satire.
Especially point 8 sounds like satire, but maybe that's just my Linux-infected brain and not what normal people think.
Wow. I honestly can't tell; is this satire? The sad thing is that this remains many people's view of computers. The first thing this person is missing is the ingenuity of people who want to get around stuff; some crummy filter or lower-powered hardware won't dissuade anyone who's curious.
I felt the same, and still am not sure but if it wasn't, just wow. It felt like just a naive parent not knowing what they're talking about but this one had me really scratching my head...
If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.
I thought it was real at first but "Linyos Torovoltos" is just too silly. In retrospect the sections on AMD and the extensive list of hacker literature are also tells, people who think like this generally wouldn't delve into that kind of detail.
It hasn't rotted, I imagine they're moving hosting providers or something. Adequacy was up a few weeks ago, I have a friend who links it quite frequently, so I see it quite often.

The more things change, the more they stay the same, eh?
